Hello and welcome to this episode.

In this episode, we will talk about positive group pressure.

Why should we talk about this?

Because it's good to talk about some benefits of positive group pressure.

I will give an example.

Suppose you want to quit smoking cigarettes.

You've tried to quit a couple of times, but you didn't succeed.

Should it have helped to join a group of people who also wanted to quit smoking?

I think that it would have helped.

Why?

Because in such a group you can get support from others who have the same goal in mind.

Would it be an additional help to attach a reward to it to keep it up?

I know a few people who joined a group to quit smoking and they linked a reward to it, 

which gave them extra motivation to hold on.

Of course you can think of other examples to join a group and find support for a positive influence to do something or to achieve something.

What will happen if you continue to join that positive minded group?

Then it will cost you less effort to achieve the goal you have in mind.

Why is it good to seek and maintain association with positive minded people?

What do you think of this thought?

A wise person listens and takes in more instruction; A man of understanding acquires skillful direction.

You can read this in the Scriptures in the book of Proverbs chapter 1 verse 5

In this episode we spoke about positive group pressure.

The positive influence of such groups has a good effect on people, 

It makes a person feel empowered to reach a certain goal and stick to it when they've reached it.

So positive group pressure is good for anyone.

Do you know someone who could use positive group pressure?

Suppose that you need positive group pressure.

Would you like it if someone could help you with that?

I do think that you will like it.

Then you should be the one to help someone else.
